Big Joe v Hyun-Jin Ryu, Lineup & Notes - Rookie Davis, Dovy Up; Feliz Down, Stratton to IL

Game: The game starts at 7:15 and will be on Fox Sports and 93.7 The Fan. The Bucs are giving out camo caps to match those they wear during Thursday home games.

Lineup: Adam Frazier 2B, Bryan Reynolds LF, Starling Marte CF, Josh Bell 1B, Melky Cabrera RF, Kevin Newman 3B, Fran Cervelli C, Cole Tucker SS, Joe Musgrove P. Fraze is the lone lefty, though Ryu doesn't have much of a split. Cervy is back, too. For LA, Russ is behind the dish tonight. Hope he doesn't pick up where Freeser left off...

Pitchers: RHP Joe Musgrove (3-4/3.67) meets LHP Hyun-Jin Ryu (6-1/1.52). Big Joe has had a bumpy May, going 2-2/7.58 with one great start and three not to write home about. He lost to LA 3-1 earlier in the year, giving up three runs (one earned) in 6-2/3 IP. Ryu has become the Dodger ace, at least this month - in four May starts, he's 3-0/0.28 and is on a 31 inning scoreless streak. He's already beaten the Pirates this year, striking out 10 in seven innings during a 6-2 victory, and he's 5-0/2.51 in five career starts against the Buccos. Just the guy ya wanna see after being thumped.

Notes:

• RHP Rookie Davis is on his way to the park. Chris Stratton went on the 10-day IL and the 40-man spot was cleared when Lonnie Chisenhall was moved from the 10-day to 60-day IL. Dovy Neverauskas was also recalled, with Michael Feliz getting a ticket to Indy.
• Kinda interesting - Michael Feliz said he didn't know he was starting last night until he got to the park; Clint said that was intentional on his part as relievers are more used to work with little notice. That should make it interesting for Monday's twin bill; he hasn't named the starters for that, either. Davis appears to be one of them, with Kingham/Keller prob the other option. Opener(s)? Who knows? The FO sure isn't helping Hurdle a whole lot; even Wednesday's start  is TBD.
